chainlink-oracles

chainlink-oracles is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from ccashwell/evm-cortex. It costs 50 tokens per session (1,354 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide to using Chainlink price feeds in smart contracts. It covers reading prices, handling decimal formats, detecting old data, and checking whether an Ethereum layer-2 network is operating.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to add Chainlink price feeds, validate price freshness, handle feed decimals, and protect applications during layer-2 sequencer outages.
Why use it?
It helps prevent contracts from using invalid, incorrectly scaled, or outdated prices.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

chainlink-oracles scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
